Fill in your details on the Registration page.  You will need to tell us :

• Your account number, claim reference or Landlord creditor number (on your bill or benefit letter)
• Your e-mail address

To sign up follow the link above and complete a short registration form.

You will need to create a user name, (for ease, you can use your email address for this). Then you will set up a password and a secret question/answer to ensure only you can log into your account in future.

A link is sent to you by email for you to verify your email address. Once this is complete there is a short video that shows you around the self service tool.

To complete sign up you will be asked for your benefit claim number/creditor id. You will be asked to verify some details on your claim to ensure that your identity is validated.  

If you fail this validation we will send you a PIN number in the post to your registered address. Once we have validated your identity you can access all the features securely online.
